Just came out today for backers and comes out on Steam in a week or two, and since my husband backed it years ago when it was on Kickstarter, we've got a copy. It's a point-and-click adventure game from Tim Schafer, who did Grim Fandango and Monkey Island. Fairly classic, with the usual sorts of gameplay and difficulties (it never really tells you how to solve a puzzle), but it's got a fairly nice looking art style and a cute story on the girl's side - I haven't played the boy's yet, although I do know his half of the game is more science fiction, and that he's voiced by Elijah Wood.
The fantasy half of the story is about a world where monsters come to eat maiden sacrifices in exchange for not destroying a town, and it's considered an honor to be eaten. The main character is one of these girls who just wants to kill the monster instead. It's a cute premise, and the locations have a nice design.
